I share your pain. 

I was struggling this morning to identify buses, but couldn't.  Too much is culturally specific (it's always USA crossings etc), too much is grammatically dubious (all squares that contain motorbikes?  No square contains motorbikes.  Some squares contain a fraction of a motorbike), and too much depends on good eyesight, good screen, and good viewing conditions.

Unfortunately, it's something that our current web providers have forced on us.  So we're stuck with it. 

But you're lucky!  The requirements for Admins are even stiffer.  Ridiculously more complex passwords, compulsory regular password changes, and two-factor authentication.

I can't offer you a lot of immediate hope.  I agree that it is a problem (other views may vary!).  I can't see any immediate solution.  Longer term?  I have hopes, but no promises yet.

Has anyone else thrown their phone at the wall after trying to log in, having to click on blurred images of traffic lights and bicycles and fire hydrants and motorcycles and zebra crossings and staircases and bicycles. This asinine procedure is meant to prove I am who I say I am, I suppose. That being so, what is the point of a password?
